Did you catch protesters outside of Walgreens locations around the island this past week? If not, here’s a picture (click to enlarge). I don’t know the background of this other than what the sign says about using standard area contractors.

Checked out the Thunderbirds performance today but instead of a closeup visit, we decided to watch from afar at a quieter distance. And something’s not right with my camera. See those black smudges in the center of the pics? Not sure where they’re coming from. And yes, Threadless.com was represented.
Overnight, there was quite a bit of Twitter discussion about the history of @alohaarleen. Arleen’s a prolific tweeter (too walaau mouth for me) with 80,000 followers who crossed a few too many people here on the island. Then the past started coming out. High drama in Twitterlulu!
I noticed my car radio is dialed into 96.3 KRTR more often – a sign I’m getting older. I’ve been taking a break from my iPod to listen to weather and traffic reports, but I can’t really find a station to lock in on. I know that it’s gonna be a good night for the […]
Here are my top five six reasons the Travelocity Roaming Gnome should visit the resorts of Four Seasons Lanai at Manele Bay and Koele. 5. Poolside tweeting. Yes, the beach is right there, but the Gnome can lay out poolside and update his Twitter status and drop hints of his next #gnomeroams stops. 4. The […]
The Four Seasons Lodge at Koele, Lanai is tech savvy running Google’s Chrome on their public use computers. And they provide charging stations for a variety of devices. Though, please note that the iPhone/iPod charger is not compatible with an iPhone 3G (and assumedly 3Gs). When I tried it, the iPhone complained and would not […]
Pictures of things I seen over the weekend. Foot Locker is making its upstairs return at Ala Moana. Right now, Foot Locker is in the dungeons of the mall. Here’s an inside peek. It is true! Build-a-Bear is no longer. Season or series finale for Janie and Jack kids clothes? This store is looking […]
Now here’s an interesting distinction… Hawaii is ranked the 8th city meanest to the homeless. I didn’t know such a stat was tracked. But if our state is going to be in the top 10, why not shoot for the top stop? Maybe we can tap the homeless for some pee power. How about making […]
Wow, is that right? Did the Ala Moana location of Build-A-Bear close down? It seemed like we were just there! The Build-A-Bear store locator shows the nearest location is either San Mateo (2386 miles) or Santa Clara (2400 miles away). Oh well, at least we have Luna Lamb and Ovejita.
But of course, otherwise how can you afford “lucky you live Hawaii?” Yes, Hawaii does lead the US in the percent of millionaires per overall population. A millionaire is defined as a “household… with $1 million or more in investable or liquid assets, excluding sponsored retirement plans and real estate,” and Hawaii has 28,363 of […]
First, there was Paul van Dyk’s Best of on sale at Amazon. iTunes followed with Jason Nevins presenting Ultra Weekend 5. Now the mainstream dance and trance DJ trifecta is complete with Amazon’s pre-release of Paul Oakenfold’s Perfecto Vegas. 2 CDs worth of tunes for $4! Awww man, my Amazon affiliate account is still shut […]
Can you believe Ala Moana Center is turning 50 years old on Thursday, August 13, 2009? That’s even before Hawaii became a U.S. state! As part of the mall’s 50th Anniversary, there are some planned events and celebrations including a photo contest where patrons can send in their favorite picture of Ala Moana from the […]
